{A Written Practice}

Make a Photo Wall

Put up photographs of people you love. People who are in your life now. People you've loved who have passed on. Places you love. Things you care about. Moments of particular joy. Celebrations. Rituals. Give yourself these things to look at that evoke memories of who you are and what you care about and what's important to you.
